Great Horned Owl
I just saw an owl outside! I was out in the park with Max and I heard these loud crows flying over. I looked up and they were escorting an enormous owl, which was landing in the tree right in front of me. She looked to her left and then her right and then right down at me and took off again. The crows did too. They flew off along the lake together. I'm pretty sure that she was a great horned owl-but I can't be sure. And even though they are a common owl, I never see owls what with the whole nocturnal thing. And the living in a big crowded city. I love owls (or pictures of them) so this was really thrilling! This has definitely been the biggest reward for carrying my camera every single place I go. I can't even believe the photos turned out. My hands are still shaking. I'm totally going to become a birder.
